Dentures

Conventional (average cost $2,000 - $3000):

  • A conventional denture is a full denture that replaces all teeth on either arch once a patient's teeth have been extracted or if the patient is currently edentulous (missing all teeth).

Interim:

  • A denture made for insertion directly after the patient has had teeth extracted. Primarily used to temporarily replace teeth to keep aesthetic appearance, occlusion and phonetics while patient heals and conventional denture is fabricated. This denture is not meant for long term use only recommended for the duration of healing period.

Partial:

  • A denture that is used to replace one or several missing teeth – does not cover the entire arch. Will clasp on to surrounding teeth or implants to hold in place.
